12 and 20 are both divisible by 4
12 ÷ 4 = 3
20 ÷ 4 = 5
-------------------------------------------------
The simplest ratio would be 3:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is x⁴-kx²+4 =0
x−2 is a factor of the given expression.
So, x=2
Substitute in the equation, we get
2⁴-k(2)²+4
⇒16+4k+4=0
⇒4k=−20
⇒k=−5
check the picture below.
so, we know the dimensions of the pool, is a 20x10, so its area is simply 200 ft², and we know the walkway is 216 ft², so the whole thing, including pool and walkway is really 200 + 216 ft².
now, as you see in the picture, the dimensions for the combined area is 20+2x and 10+2x, since the walkway is "x" long, therefore,

notice, it cannot be -18, since is a positive length unit.
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
(30) +
(30) = 28
(30) = 18
(30) = 10
18 + 10 = 28
